Out and About | The New Children’s Museum

San Diego is surely a magical place! We learned about “Kids Go Free October” last year. Apparently, February is the “Museum Month” in San Diego. There are 45+ museums in San Diego County that offer half off of the admission for the entire month of February. We picked The New Children’s Museum to explore the fun last weekend.

Rethink of Goodie Bags

I thought Valentine’s Day is to show signs of love to someone who is “romantically” involved with. Nowadays the school makes it a big deal to build friendships among the kids. My kiddos brought a whole lot of candies and goodie-bag toys home surprisingly more than Halloween and Christmas! I like the idea of building friendships and sharing with classmates at school but the amount of candies and toys is not my ideal way of sharing. As I become more aware of sugar intake and eco-friendly, I’d like to see what else my children can share without taking away the spark of joy.

Once Upon a Time in Hawaii

Hamauma Bay @ Island of O'ahu 

So, the story goes: Two months before our Zion National Park trip, I received a call and an e-mail from a lady, who was the vice principal from my former workplace like 12 years ago in San Diego. She left a message telling me that someone I knew from Utah was looking for me. Utah? I didn’t know anybody from Utah… was it a scam?
